? Maybe it’s the Sheriff of Nottingham, or perhaps Professor Severus Snape? Or why not all of the above?," Thorogood said in a statement."With the publication of his diaries, fans everywhere are in for a rare treat. Here is the real Alan Rickman: smart, passionate, funny, caring and insightful."
Of the upcoming book, Henry Holt and Company says:"The diaries paint a rare portrait of a world class actor, a tireless political activist, an avid traveler and a devoted friend. Handwritten, starting in the early '90s and kept for the rest of his life, the diaries offer a rare insight into the mind of the man and the artistic, social and political worlds he inhabited."
"Alan Rickman is one of our most celebrated and beloved actors, as reflected in the overwhelming positive response from publishers," Galustian said."However, Canongate’s hugely impressive pitch and creative vision for the book was knock out. On behalf of Alan’s widow Rima and the Rickman estate we are thrilled to be working with Canongate to bring the diaries to life as Alan intended.
If rima has given permission to publish them I'm guess Alan would be okay with it.
I would like to know it was in his will to publish his diaries otherwise it’s a incredible invasion of a dead mans privacy
I don’t think I can read these without knowing he wanted them read. It feels too invasive.
Loved this man great Actor
Hans Gruber Ultimate Villian and very classy too
Hans Gruber
Do you think he would give permission were he still alive? I don't think so.

I hope it’s the detailed plans of how to infiltrate Nakatomi Tower.
Nothing against him, but why? Do some want to copy Garry Shandling’s “Zen Diaries”?
Looking forward to these.
😢 proffessor Snape
Something to look forward to.

I loved Alan Rickman! He was so good in Kevin Costner's Robin Hood! That film made me love him! I watched everything of his! I miss him!
I'm sure it was quite a battle.
I would love to read these diaries. He was so wonderful.
donwinslow Wow! One of the few books I'd fall all over myself to pre-order. I am not an actor follower type, but DAMN I miss this man. One of my favorite films of his is Truly Madly Deeply. Alan sings! Sigh.
